I learned just before his third birthday that
Biologically, he's not my son.
I knew it.
She has addictions to hard drugs, and she's very promiscuous.
I didn't realize this the first few years we were together.
Everything seemed fine.
Everything was good.
I bought a house for us to live in.
We had a nice little family.
Then when I noticed, I found some drugs hidden somewhere and looked through her phone and found out all sorts of information I didn't want to know.
realize, hey, you know, our son was born a month earlier than he should have been, so that got me questioning his parentage, and I had a DNA test done, and he is not my son, unfortunately.
I never wanted to abandon, it was never a question for me whether or not I was going to abandon him and her and just...
and let them go on their merry way.
Despite all of my friends and family advice, they all said, hey, you know, just get yourself off the birth certificate, man.
Just go on your merry way.
And I could have, but that's not... I couldn't.
You know, I'm the only person he knows as his father, and I'm not going to permanently disrupt his life just because of a temporary...
disruption in mind.
So anyway, he's my son.
I'm going to raise him.
